Abstract
An arrangement (1) for inspecting an object (2) comprising a mobile measuring unit (13) for determining a measured value associated with the object (2). The measuring unit (13) has an interface for interchanging data with further units (12, 14-17). The arrangement also comprises a base unit (3; 12) in which data records (13) can be stored and displayed. A detection mechanism (14) is provided for detecting a measurement position (32), at which the measured value is determined, and/or a measurement time at which the measured value is determined. The measured value determined by the measuring unit (13) can be transmitted, together with measurement position and/or measurement time, as a data record to the base unit (3; 12). The mobile measuring unit (13) determines measured values for an internal structure and/or an internal state of components (8), in particular inaccessible components, of the object (2) in a non-destructive manner.
